'PARIs, THE MAGNIFICENT
Rev. j II. Vincent, D D., SAYS: "For
brlliancy of Illustration, for elegance of
diction, for charming style of delivery, and
for fullness Of instruction, Mr.. Ragan's
lectures are pronounced by old and cul-
tured Chautauquans uncompared since the
very beginning of the Cbautauqua institu-
tion."
"Isles and corridors were thronged with
people who stood patiently for nearly two
hours during the entertainment, while 1t
was esti mated that at least 500 failed to
gain admittance. The character of the
audience was flattering in the highest de-
gree and fairly represented the cultured
people Of Denver. 1t may justly be sa Id
that every reasonable expectation was
more than realized. The entertainment is
properly magniHcently illustrated lecture
and one hardly known which to emphasize
most, the lecture or Its illustrations. The
latter are the finest Of the kind that have
yet been produced, and this strong state
ment is sup por ed by the best artistic au.
thority in Europe and America. Rocky
